And his unspoken kindness and sense of justice in blocking the child’s eyes and ears without fear for the future.
As Emily flushed thinking of him, her face suddenly froze at a sudden thought.
‘…’
That face was all too familiar.
Her father had always been sincere, diligent, and upright.
The sincere father was deceived by his own relatives and even lost his territory.
Perhaps the man Emily needed now was more calculating and treacherous, like Duke Will.
Such people would do anything if only the roles were clear.
But she couldn’t forget his face, no matter how hard she tried.
Emily quickly lowered her head to forget that face and feeling.
‘Ah… Forget it! Forget it! I really…!’
Then, César spoke as he looked at Ivana’s clay.
“Ivana, you just need to carefully tap it like this…”
“…I said I don’t like diligent men!!!”
The classroom went silent at Emily’s outcry.
César muttered in shock.
“…I’m sorry, Teacher…”
“Oh, oh! Ce, César! I’m, I’m sorry! I was wrong!”
Emily covered her mouth and tried to console the child, but César’s stern face did not relax easily.
“Teacher bad!”
“What did Teacher do to César!”
“César, cheer up…!”
Chicks glaring at Emily in defense of their attacked friend.
[Dash] Knock knock.Just in time, a knocking sound on the door.
Emily, avoiding the angry chicks, ran to the door and opened it.
There stood Principal Norzia.
“Miss Emily, do you have a moment?”
“Oh, yes!”
Emily tensed up, fearing what the principal might say in the noisy atmosphere.
However,
“A new student will be coming.”
Although it was not bad news, the principal’s face seemed a bit gloomy.
“Huh? Principal, our class is already full.”
“I’m sorry. All other classes are in the same situation, and due to the child’s status, we had no choice but to put him in the Sparrow class.”
“Status?”
Principal Norzia turned her head toward a wealthylooking violethaired woman and child approaching from a distance.
The new woman and child approached,
“Nice to meet you, Miss Emily Tangst. This is Evan Kilgis, the grandson of the Duke, and the next family head.”
“Nice to meet you, Miss Emily.”
Calm eyes and refined manners unlike his peers.
Emily quickly bowed in the face of his flawless demeanor.
And soon, she felt like she was about to cry.
‘Why do only highstatus children come to me and not the ones I need? What about my miserable life?’
When would the savior she yearned for appear?
[Star Icon]The Emperor’s office.
Chancellor and Helbert answered the Emperor’s summons after a long time.
“You called, Your Majesty.”
“Commander Helbert. Your Majesty, here I am.”
The Emperor pointed at a request form with a gloomy face as soon as he saw them.
Chancellor began reading the request form.
“These are entrance permits from various countries. The region is Hengken Village. Surely not…”
At Jaseong’s words, the Emperor spoke with a serious expression.
“A spy I planted in the Information Guild told me that they received evidence of the existence of the Tree of Life from an unknown source…!”
“Hmm, so they made it so you have no choice but to tell us.”
Jaseong immediately fell into thought.
Soon after, he quietly opened his lips.
“We have no choice. It seems everyone wants to gather, so let’s hold a continental peace conference accordingly.”
“What? That is…”
Continental Peace Conference.
It was not organized by a specific country but rather held in the Grand Assembly, aimed to address issues affecting the continent.
Last time it was held, the main issue was the black pollution causing problems across the continent.
However, listening silently, Helbert quietly muttered.
“What are we going to discuss in this peace conference? We’re not planning to say our kid will handle it, are we?”
“…”
“…”
[Dash]Smash!“Ah! What a surprise! Why scare me like that. I didn’t even bring it up… my desk…”
The corner of the Emperor’s desk shattered under Helbert’s force.
Despite the Emperor’s reaction, Helbert showed no change in expression.
“I’m opposed.”
“Hmm, but the situation has changed. Now we know that someone versed in political matters is controlling the dark magician, so we need to take action…”
Despite his threat, Jaseong looked into the air as if calculating something.
It was the action he always took when devising a strategy.
Seeing this, Helbert slammed his hand onto the desk with a sinister face.
“Do you think I’m a fool? Do you think our kid doesn’t realize she’s being told to face the whole continent?”
[Dash]Gulp.The Emperor swallowed, watching that hand.
His back was breaking in the tension between the two.
“Helbert. Our duty is to protect the Empire. We can’t let other countries freely exploit the Empire under the pretext of hope.”
Jaseong was not wrong.
Thus, Helbert, who silently glared, kept staring.
Caught in the middle, the Emperor muttered under his breath.
“I, I think Lucia is capable. You’re protective because you’re like a father to her, but we should be more concerned about cleaning up corpses…”
Suddenly, Helbert’s fierce eyes flashed towards the Emperor.
“Hm… like mother, like daughter. I’ll eat you up, I will.”
The muttering Emperor hurriedly began clearing the expensive items from his desk.
Helbert was still glaring at Jaseong, but as always in such situations, he was unreadable.
My Ex-Girlfriend Is The Regent In The Female-dominant World (Male lead transmigrates to the matriarchal world)
Two years ago, Gu Sui picked up a homeless woman in ancient costume from the street.
Apart from occasionally claiming to be a princess from a female-dominant country due to illness, her figure, appearance, intelligence, and martial arts skills were impeccable.
Naturally evolving from roommates to girlfriends, as time went on, Gu Sui found it increasingly difficult to tolerate her queen syndrome.
“Mu Jiulu, can you stop controlling me inside and out? Let’s break up.”
Gu Sui made a breakup call, and since then, he couldn’t find any trace of her.
A year later, Gu Sui, who was planning to move, woke up the next day and found himself in a different place.
“Young Master, today is the day you choose your Wife-master through martial arts competition at Jade Dew Pavilion. Please get up quickly.”
Gu Sui: Who am I? Where am I? What am I doing?
As the only son of a general’s mansion in a female-dominant dynasty, the young empress personally issued a decree allowing Gu Sui to select his Wife-master through martial arts competition. Whoever could defeat him could marry him.
Gu Sui: “……”
He didn’t inherit the original owner’s martial prowess, so anyone could defeat him! And what the hell is a Wife-master?
Forced to come to Jade Dew Pavilion, the densely packed women below made Gu Sui’s agoraphobia act up, and his face was full of resistance.
Until he saw the Regent sitting on the second floor, with a smile on the corner of her lips, her eyes wicked and nonchalant.
Hmm… she looked a little familiar.
It turned out that the Regent also found him a little familiar.
Mu Jiulu fiddled with her bone clasp, her deep gaze locked on the man who was out of place in this world.
“Finally, I found you.”
